I will certainly be pleased to answer that question.

Yes, it did, because certainly from our perspective, safety is safety. Our industry is a highly competitive industry, and a key component of that competitiveness is safety and reliability of aviation products. It's not in the industry's interest whatsoever to go on the cheap and put out products that are less safe, because ultimately, that's just not in their business interests. So safety and reliability are a key component of the product quality that industry members must produce if they're to remain in business.
